From Hartford Englewood via azcardinals.com:
“Realistically, how many games do you think we could win this season? I think we can beat the Bengals, Lions, Giants, 49ers, Bucs, and maybe the Hawks once. I predict us going 6-10 or 7-9. Also, how many games do you think we should win in order to...
For Murray, the rookies have “jelled very quickly.” His teammates appreciate Murray, even with his No. 1 overall status.
“I’ve been out to eat with him, hung out at the mall, and sometimes he just tries to be a regular dude, but it’s hard,” rookie tight end Caleb Wilson said. “That’s because...
The draft was nearing its end in the seventh round when General Manager Steve Keim made the call to the 10th of 11 picks to let him know he was going to be a Cardinal.
Michael Dogbe, a defensive lineman from Temple, could barely get any words out in response. The tears and emotion were quickly...
Everyone wants to be a quarterback, and after playing the position at Gardena (Calif.) Serra High School, Caleb Wilson originally committed to do more of the same at Old Dominion University.
That plan changed after a moment of reckoning.
“My senior year in California, the quarterbacks out...
Strickland played four seasons at Syracuse. He was in a timeshare as a senior in 2018, finishing the season with 588 yards rushing and six touchdowns with an average of 4.9 yards per carry.
The Cardinals have four returners in the running back room – David Johnson, Chase Edmonds, T.J. Logan...
Byrd is expected to compete with players like Hakeem Butler, KeeSean Johnson, Kevin White, Trent Sherfield, Pharoh Cooper and Chad Williams to make the roster and then earn playing time.
While players like Fitzgerald, Kirk and David Johnson are expected to get the most touches, Byrd feels like...
The Cardinals report to training camp July 24 at State Farm Stadium and hold an open practice July 25, the first of 14 open practices in coach Kliff Kingsbury’s first year.
The annual Red-White Practice will be held Aug. 3. They open the preseason schedule Aug. 8 with the Thursday night game...
The Siglers canceled their flights to St. John when Tyler signed. The wedding was still a go, even though it meant missing practices on Thursday and Friday.
“Luckily the coaches here were incredibly patient,” Tyler said.
With permission granted, the Siglers prepared to enjoy their weekend --...
Sweezy played four seasons of defensive line at North Carolina State, but his chances of getting drafted at the position were slim. The Seahawks tried him on the offensive line in the 2012 pre-draft process and asked if he’d be willing to make the transition.
“I told them I’d do whatever,”...
Gardeck appreciates the praise, but it’s not going to his head. While some players take their spot in the NFL for granted, his journey here keeps everything in perspective.
“My redshirt year (at West Virginia State), I was the film guy for us,” Gardeck said. “I’d help set up bags for the...
Johnson only ran a 4.6-second 40-yard dash at the combine but Raih brushed that off after seeing him run routes.
“The release, the stem, the top, he runs right through the football,” Raih said. “His play speed is incredibly fast.”
The outside skepticism is not new to Johnson. At Palo Alto...
I’m not sure on the exact percentages for the first two questions, but there are plenty of Keim draft picks playing key roles in the NFL, either with the Cardinals or elsewhere. As far as late-rounders, no, I don’t think it’s more important to nail depth picks as much as first-rounders. The...
WANDERING THE GLOBE
April Hundley is a flight attendant, and Brett has no doubt that’s where his passion for travel began.
“Brett’s got that wanderlust that I have, and actually my mother, when she was my age, saved up her money and went abroad,” April Hundley said. “It’s kind of in his...
THERE ARE SOME DARKHORSE CANDIDATES AT WIDE RECEIVER
Drafting a trio of receivers – Andy Isabella, Hakeem Butler and KeeSean Johnson – was done out of necessity, and while the learning curve hasn’t been conquered, it’s hard to see a scenario where all three aren’t around as part of the room’s...
The Cardinals are done on the field for the offseason, but with vacations looming, the team still made a roster move Thursday when they released cornerback David Amerson.
The move comes as somewhat of a surprise, given Patrick Peterson’s six-game suspension looming to start the regular season...
The Cardinals are projected to start D.J. Humphries at left tackle and Marcus Gilbert on the right side. However, both have been injury-prone and are in the final year of their contracts.
Harrison seems like an ideal backup option but needs to prove he can be dependable.
“I’ll just show that...
